Romania is crossing the most difficult cold season for the energy system in the last decade. The two reactors at Cernavoda, which usually provides about a fifth of the country's electricity, have been shut down for almost three months. Seceta has lowered the Danube below the level at which the nuclear power plant can cool down, and the same lack of water ...
Romania is going through the most difficult cold season for the energy system in the last decade, under the conditions in which the two reactors at Cernavode have been shut down for three months, and the production of hydro power stations has decreased significantly due to drought. Saving could come from Mintia, whose energy production will increase by the end of the year, shows a Frames analysis. Moreover, Romania has a serious chance to become…
Romania is crossing the most difficult cold season for the energy system in the last decade, under conditions where both reactors at Cernavode are shut down, and the drought has also reduced the production of hydrocentrals, shows a Frames analysis. The gradual entry into operation of the power plant at Mintia can reduce the dependence on imports in peak hours, but network locks and insufficient storage capacity remain the main vulnerabilities.

Romania faces major problems in the energy system, after stopping both reactors at Cernavoda and decreasing hydrocentral production due to drought. A Frames analysis warns that the country risks increasingly depending on electricity imports this winter, while prices have reached over 434 euros/MWh in peak hours.
